Yesterday our truck was stolen yesterday. I’m not making this up. It was there, and then either in the middle of the night, or after I left to take my girls to school it was gone. The timing is a bit foggy. What makes me smile is that I *think* it was there when...

This week my oldest daughter is in tech week for you school play called “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever” which happens to be one of my top favorite books to read to my girls every Christmas. I always cry when I read it because it has a way of seeing the...
